🖤 "You will remember me," I utter, wrapping my hand tighter around the candle. "You will remember the woman who burned your world to ash. For I am a reckoning. I am vengeance. I am your demise. And no one, no man nor army shall stand in my way. Unless they also wish to burn."
🔥

🌺Corintha is an iron hearted young Mer living on Isla de las Madres, home to one of the great Mer pods of the Southern Seas. At seventeen summers, Corintha is now full grown in the eyes of her elders. Old enough to find a mate during the yearly mating season, when the young males return from exploring the world of man, far different than the calm tranquility of their island home. A land that haunts Corintha with the memories of loss, pain, and the fear that her future will be made for her. 

But her destiny will not be one where tradition will bind her and keep her bound to the island. Fate will pull her into the arms of Ares, the son of the pod's chief and a male that will have Corintha questioning her innermost desires. However, he will not win her heart without a fight and surviving the endless dangers that lie ahead for him, Corintha, and their motley crew of chaotic companions. 

The hands of fate will lead the young Mer on a journey they never thought possible. Faced with rival Mer from the North, pirates that hold deadly knowledge, and navigating the world of man without revealing their inhuman nature. These trials will test them, break them, and bring about a new story, a new legend for the travelers of land and sea. A villain with a thirst for blood. A creature of nightmarish myth. A monster to be feared. A title that Corintha will learn to bare with pride. 🦚

Venture to Uncertainty (#1) by tarishannon18
44 parts Complete
It's a deadly plan, and it goes like this: First, become a crew member of the Avourienne, a pirate ship notorious for its charismatic captain and wicked ways. Second, trick the ship's cunning strategist, famous for winning every game she's ever played, into believing a delicately spun lie. Third, get close enough to their tyrant king to put a knife through him. Deadly doesn't quite describe such a plan. In fact, inconceivable may be the better word. But Archer Kingsley has a knack for such things, and he feels he's going to pull off this plan with the ease he does most everything. Perhaps he's not quite aware of the absolute hell that's about to break loose, but truthfully, it's so much better that way. Because true adventures are born from uncertainty. * Cover by xxsoteria Mature themes you may encounter in this book: - harsh language (it's a pirate book) - violence (it's a pirate book) - sexual implications (it's a PIRATE book) However, this story does not violate any of Wattpad's mature guidelines and therefore is not marked as such.

Not because of the storms, the depths, or the curses whispered by old sailors-but because something watches him from beneath the waves. As a boy, he made a grave mistake. He freed a creature that should have never been unchained. A being with cold, unblinking eyes and a hunger as deep as the ocean itself. He told himself it was over, that the sea would forget. But the sea does not forget. And neither do the things that dwell within it. Now, no matter how far he sails, no matter how many tides pass, he feels it. The pull. The weight of an unseen gaze. The quiet patience of something waiting just below the surface. He should have never looked into those eyes. He should have let it die. But it is too late for regrets. or | 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄 a pirate, instead of finding a treasure, finds himself tangled in a mess with a certain merman. ──────────── 𝗠ost 𝗢utstanding 𝗥ankings! 1# Boat (March 21th 2025) 5# Male (April 21th 2025) 8# sea (May 12th 2025) 14# blood (May 12th 2025)
